Abstract

Three kinds of porous MnOx catalysts consisted of nanoparticles (about 6.5, 8.5, and 21 nm, respectively) were successfully prepared by three different methods, co-precipitation method (CP), citric acid method (CA), and hydrothermal method (HT), respectively. Their physicochemical properties were characterized by TEM, XRD, BET, XPS, H2-TPR, and NH3-TPD in detail, and their catalytic activities were evaluated by the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx with NH3 in the temperature range of 60~300 °C. The results showed that their catalytic activities decreased in the order of MnOx/HT > MnOx/CA > MnOx/CP in the region of 60–120 °C due to the dominant factor resulted from the reducibility of MnOx. In contrast, their catalytic activities declined in the order of MnOx/CA > MnOx/HT > MnOx/CP in the region of 180–300 °C, which can be attributed to the amount of acid sites on the surface of these catalysts. In the region of 120–180 °C, the as-prepared three catalysts exhibited high catalytic activity with 100% NOx conversion under a high gas hourly space velocity (GHSV) of 36,000 h−1.
